Unique SSV Long Stroke Valve by Alfa Laval, ensuring effective flow control for particle-laden or high-viscosity media.Unique SSV Long Stroke

The Alfa Laval Unique SSV Long Stroke pneumatic single seat valve is dependable and versatile, with only one point of contact between the plug and seat, reducing the risk of contamination. Its tiny, flexible and sanitary design meets the highest process safety and hygiene standards. Its larger aperture makes it appropriate for use with highly viscous products or those containing particles and/or suspended solids; it is built on the tried-and-true Unique SSV platform.

Our one-of-a-kind SSV Long Stroke is suitable for a wide range of hygienic applications in the food, beverage, dairy and brewing industries, among others.

 

 

 

SINGLE SEAT VALVE LONG STROKE APPLICATION

This one-of-a-kind SSV Long Stroke has a wide range of hygienic applications, including food, beverage, dairy and brewing.

Benefits

  • Improved product safety using static seal leak detection
  • The double lip sea seal provides protection against a full vacuum
  • Superior cleanability due to a smooth inner valve body without fissures

Standard Design

The Unique SSV Long Stroke is available in a one- or two-body configuration, with easily configurable valve bodies, plugs, actuators and clamp rings. The valve can be fitted with a shut-off valve with two or three working ports, or a changeover valve with up to five ports. To ensure adaptability, the valve seat located between the two bodies in the changeover variation is easily accessible for installation.

The valve seals are designed for durability and long service life using a predetermined compression design. The yoke connects the actuator to the valve body and all components are assembled using clamp rings. The Alfa Laval ThinkTop V50 and V70 can also be mounted on the valve to improve sensing and control. The Alfa Laval Anytime configurator can be easily customised to meet almost any process requirement.

Working Principle

The Alfa Laval Unique SSV Long Stroke is powered by compressed air and operated remotely. The actuator protects process lines from pressure peaks and guarantees a smooth operation. The valve can be controlled using an Alfa Laval ThinkTop.
